Flew in from miami beach B.O.A.C

On the way the paperback was on my knee

Gee its good to be back home
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case
Just disconnect the phone

Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out
They leave the west behind

Show me round your snow peaked mountains way down south
Take me to your daddys farm
Let me hear your ba la lakas ringin out
Come and keep your comrads warm
